- Change theme
Quotes by David Herbert Lawrence
- I am in love - and, my God, it is the greatest thing that can happen to a man. I tell you, find a woman you can fall in love with. Do it. Let yourself fall in love. If you have not done so already, you are wasting your life.
- I can never decide whether my dreams are the result of my thoughts, or my thoughts the result of my dreams.
- I can't bear art that you can walk round and admire. A book should be either a bandit or a rebel or a man in the crowd.
- I hate the actor and audience business. An author should be in among the crowd, kicking their shins or cheering them on to some mischief or merriment.
- I want to live my life so that my nights are not full of regrets.
- In every living thing there is the desire for love.
- It is a fine thing to establish one's own religion in one's heart, not to be dependent on tradition and second-hand ideals. Life will seem to you, later, not a lesser, but a greater thing.
- It is quite true, as some poets said, that the God who created man must have had a sinister sense of humor, creating him a reasonable being, yet forcing him to take this ridiculous posture, and driving him with blind craving for this ridiculous performance.
